Commit 5625f2e3266319fd ("TOMOYO: Change pathname for non-rename()able filesystems.") intended to be applied to filesystems where the content is not controllable from the userspace (e.g. proc, sysfs, securityfs), based on an assumption that such filesystems do not support rename() operation. But it turned out that read-only filesystems also do not support rename() operation despite the content is controllable from the userspace, and that commit is annoying TOMOYO users who want to use e.g. squashfs as the root filesystem due to use of local name which does not start with '/'. Therefore, based on an assumption that filesystems which require the device argument upon mount() request is an indication that the content is controllable from the userspace, do not use local name if a filesystem does not support rename() operation but requires the device argument upon mount() request.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
